It was our second time staying here. It's a wonderful, peaceful setting with a beautiful trail system literally next door. Loved sitting out on the porch listening to the crickets while the dog enjoyed the fully fenced yard. Wonderful kitchen with all the tools and appliances you could ask for. If we visit Vancouver Island again, this is where we'll stay.

Well deserved getaway.

I rented the cottage to visit our daughter who lives on the island and celebrate my wife’s birthday. The cottage was perfect. The location was what we were looking for. Lots of trails for biking and hiking which we enjoyed. Short walk to the ocean where we seen seals every day. The cottage had everything we needed and more. Andrea was a great host.

Great stay for our getaway.

This cottage is bright, spacious, very clean and well laid out with all the amenities one could want. It’s easy to find and check-in is a breeze. The property is quiet and at night there’s no city lights to obstruct star gazing. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting again.
